A/N: Hey everyone, so this a script I'm working on for my portfolio and I'd love any input you might have for me. I have the whole thing planned out already but if you see anything wrong or are confused by anything please let me know! Also since it's an actual script for my portfolio I can't go too over the top with the E/O but don't worry I definitely have some planned.

Teaser:
EXT. NEW YORK CITY STREET-DAY
A WOMAN, age 21, with a messenger bag from Take U Out Dog Walking Company walks down the sidewalk whistling. She skips up the stairs to an apartment building and enters.
INT. APARTMENT BUILDING HALLWAY-DAY-CONTINUOUS
She puts her key in the door and we can hear a dog SCRATCHING at it from the other side.
WOMAN:
Just a minute Daisy, I'm coming.
As she gets the door open a MAN rushes her from behind and pushes her into the apartment. She SCREAMS. We don't see his face, only his back. He shoves her into the bedroom and we hear the dog BARKING, her SCREAMING, and a struggle.
INT. APARTMENT-DAY-LATER
BENSON and STABLER arrive on scene and find UNFORMED OFFICERS and the PARAMEDICS already there. Benson approaches a FEMALE UNIFORM.
BENSON
What happened?
FEMALE OFFICER
Cynthia Wells, dog walker. Ambushed from behind when entering the apartment and raped.
Benson takes off into the apartment and approaches the victim, CYNTHIA WELLS.
BENSON
Hi Cynthia I'm Detective Benson how're you doing?
CYNTHIA:
(displaced anxiety)
Where's Daisy? Did she get out? You have to find her.
Benson scans the apartment but doesn't see the dog.
BENSON
It's alright we'll find her. Let's focus on you though.
CYNTHIA:
(panicked)
No you have to find her I can't lose a dog I'll get fired.
BENSON:
We're going to take you to the hospital now to get you checked out.
The paramedics begin to wheel her into the hallway, Stabler walks in carrying a small white dog.
STABLER:
Found her in the hallway, she peed on my jacket.
The paramedics continue to roll the gurney out of the apartment.
CYNTHIA (O.S)
(yelling from hallway)
She needs fresh water!
Benson and Stabler exchange glances and look down at Daisy.
